Study notes

1. Origins, structure, and basic meaning

  • Structure: 白桃 is read はくとう and refers to peaches with white flesh.
  • Basic usage: It appears in contexts such as chilling fruit to eat or checking for damage before packing it.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

  • Spelling and reading
    • Rather than attaching the standalone reading もも of , read the whole word 白桃 as はくとう.
  • What the color describes
    • The white in the name concerns the flesh. A white peach can have a red blush on its skin, so its exterior color alone does not determine the type.
